Method: The mehodology used was Classroom Action Research (CAR), conducted in two cycles, each consisting of the stages of planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. The subject involved in this study were children aged 5 to 6 years. Data collection was conducted through observation and documentation, while data analysis employed quantitative descriptive analysis based on the percentage of achievement in early numeracy skills. Results: The results of this study indicate a gradual improvement in the children's numeracy skills, rising from 46% in the pre-cycle to 62% in Cycle I and further increasing to 85% in Cycle II. This increase indicates that the use of a box-based flannel abacus board, combined with improvements in learning activities has proven effective in helping children recognize number symbols, arrange number sequences, perform simple addition and subtaction, and compare the quantities of object. The percentage in Cycle II exceeded the established success indicator of 75%.
